Thanks for the reply. Very restrictive permissions are what I need. I think the problem may be how cygwin is interpreting the windows/samba permissions. I have a user that is ssh'ing into windows to compile an application (they are developers). For this compiling the user's scripts (Makefiles actually I think) ssh back to unix servers to do something. As this is an automated script I need the ssh to go through without asking for a password. This works unix-to-unix, bot not windows-to-unix. Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
